If anything, this year proved that London is a hotbed of emerging talent. From the much buzzed debut of Asger Juel Larsen to J.W. Anderson’s enchanting collections or stories for a better term, London’s designers are busy at work carving out a niche for themselves as a new generation of visionaries. Not afraid to break outside the mold and push forward with a well-defined concept, designers like James Long toyed with the idea of his man as a soldier while Lina Österman brought a certain gentle quality to her brooding character. Meanwhile, much like his contemporaries, Todd Lynn turned tradition on its side, moving suiting towards a more romantic approach. Altogether, these designers help earn London a more focused eye going into 2010 in anticipation of only greater things to come.
